2. Introduction

Findster Technologies was established in 2015 to develop products that
take advantage of technology and innovation to connect people with
their loved ones.

A new paradigm in location systems, Findster uses proprietary long­range communication technology to enable the continuous control of
each user’s safety and well being - without requiring any monthly fees.

The system is comprised of two modules – the Guardian and the
Target - which are comfortable and well-designed wearable pieces.
Communicating through Radio Frequency (RF), they allow real-time
monitoring of the target’s geo-location and activity, while also providing
some additional useful features. A high-precision GNSS tracking system
is used, as well as a proprietary communication system in the Sub 1GHz
Industrial/ Scientific/ Medical (ISM) band.

The Findster App receives information directly from the Guardian mod­ule – via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), or remotely through the cloud
– via WiFi or 3G. The latter allows data sharing with other authorized
users. The App allows large groups to be monitored, centralizing data
and further enhancing the user’s connectivity with the ecosystem.
